Hippie - Thanks, I'm familiar with the powder. Never seen anyone use it on horns, though.
Bought an old horned herf bull yesterday that had one horn turned back into his head. Only thing I had handy was a hacksaw, going to get an ob saw to keep around from now on. My grandparents had horned animals when I was a kid, but I haven't messed with them for many moons. We covered the end in baking soda, helped a little. Mom said we should have used pine tar, after the fact. Shoulda called Mom first.
Thinking about getting a searing iron, but hate to spend 60 bucks.
